I used to get The Guardian every Saturday but reading the newspaper was a waste of time. I'd already read most of it online, the night before. I'd be sad to see the paper go, but I just can't see how they can turn a profit on it, or keep it relevant when news can be more easily accessed online.

Disability charity Scope called on Philip Hammond to withdraw his “totally unacceptable and derogatory comments” after he said Britain’s sluggish productivity could partly be blamed on more disabled people in the workforce .https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... ed-workers

Passing the blame once again. Instead of telling disabled workers to work harder maybe he should take some responsibility for once.

That really is an amazing comment of the disability thing. Even if there are more disabled people in work then it's only going to be a small proportion of those that maybe can't do the job as quickly as someone else as most disabled people would go for a job where there disability doesn't effect their work. And even then it must be such a small proportion of the workforce over all that the impact would be so tiny that it's not even noticeable.

Dave can only make 10 pairs of shoes a day due to his disability whilst mark manages to make 15 in the same factory. Yes surely that's the reason the Italians make more fancy shoes than us, let's blame Dave.

You can tell the Defence Secretary is new to the job because this is not supposed to be something you put out in the public domain, despite it being standard practise across the world (i.e. a hit list signed off by the PM/President). It usually takes out a load of 'collateral damage' along the way though - as noted on Sky News earlier, its widely believed that for every 1 hit, there's another 9 dead civilians.
